Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0236001A1] Ectopic beat activity detection of the human heart is monitored by time interval measurement of depolarizations in the heart. The intervals between beats are categorized as being long beats, short beats or normal beats. Then the sequence of categories of beats is analyzed to determine the types of ectopic beats occurring and to count such occurrences and display such information to a health care provider to help monitor, diagnose and treat patients. For patients with pacemakers installed the information can be used to adjust pacemaker settings. The information may also be used to alert the health care providers to dangerous patterns indicating serious conditions which need immediate treatment.
